The method for controlling the driving current of the display panel is used for controlling the driving current of the display panel and avoiding the influence of overlarge driving current of the display panel on the display effect and the service life of the display panel. The method is mainly suitable for the display panel such as an OLED display panel and the like, wherein the driving current fluctuates due to the change of environmental conditions such as illumination, temperature and the like.
Fig. 1 is a flowchart of a method for controlling a driving current of a display panel according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in fig. 1, the method includes:
step S110, determining a power function of the display panel;
step S120, calculating the standard driving current of the display panel through the power function;
step S130, detecting the actual driving current of the display panel;
step S140, judging whether the actual driving current exceeds the standard or not by comparing the actual driving current with the standard driving current;
and S150, if the actual driving current exceeds the standard, adjusting the actual driving current.
According to the method for controlling the driving current of the display panel, the standard driving current of the display panel is obtained through calculation according to the power function of the display panel, the actual driving current is detected in the working process of the display panel, the actual driving current is compared with the standard driving current, whether the actual driving current exceeds the standard or not is judged, and if the actual driving current exceeds the standard, the actual driving current is adjusted. On one hand, the problems that the brightness of the display panel fluctuates, the brightness changes greatly and the display effect is influenced due to the fact that the current flowing through the display panel changes along with the changes of illumination and temperature are solved by adjusting the actual driving current, and the display effect is improved; on the other hand, the phenomenon that the driving current is too large so as to damage the luminescent material and the driving circuit of the display panel is avoided, and the service life of the display panel is prolonged.
Next, a message text processing method in the present exemplary embodiment will be further described.
In step S110, a power function of the display panel may be determined.
In the operation of the display panel, the power factor of the display panel is the ratio of the sum of the luminances of the lighted pixels on the display panel to the sum of the maximum luminances of all the pixels, as shown in formula 1:
Figure BDA0001747027540000051
where APL is the power factor, SUM is the SUM of the luminances of the pixels lit on the display panel, and SUM is the SUM of the maximum luminances of all the pixels on the display panel.
According to the power control function of the display panel, the power function of the display panel can be obtained as a function of the APL, and the type of the power function is the same as that of the power control function. And selecting a plurality of power factors according to the type of the power function, and detecting the driving current corresponding to the plurality of power factors.
In the display panel, the driving current and the brightness of the display panel are generally in a linear relationship, and the current brightness of the display panel is calculated through the driving current. And obtaining the current power through the ratio of the current brightness and the maximum brightness of the display panel. That is, a plurality of sets of power and power factor data are obtained, and the power function corresponding to the display panel can be obtained according to the plurality of sets of power and power factor data and the type of the power function.
For example, for an OLED display panel, the power control function is a piecewise function, and each segment is a linear function. And detecting the driving current corresponding to the power factors of the segmentation function end point and the demarcation point, and calculating through the driving current to obtain the power corresponding to the segmentation demarcation point and the end point power factor so as to obtain the power function. In practical application, the end points of the power function can be selected as a window point with the highest gray scale of 5% and a point with the highest gray scale of the full screen, and the driving currents corresponding to the two end points are respectively detected.
Certainly, in practical applications, the power control function of the display panel may also be another type of function, and the corresponding power function is also another type of function, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment of the disclosure. At this time, the detection point of the power factor can be adjusted to obtain the power factor and the corresponding driving current, and further determine the power function. For example, the power control function may be a quadratic function, the power function is also a quadratic function, and three different power factor detection points may be selected, and the corresponding currents thereof are detected, thereby determining the quadratic function.
It should be noted that, when the driving current corresponding to the power factor is detected, the detection is performed under the standard illumination and temperature conditions, so as to avoid the influence on the detection result due to the change of the illumination and the temperature.
In step S120, a standard driving current of the display panel may be calculated through the power function. The standard driving current is the driving current of the display panel under the theoretical condition. A standard drive current curve can be obtained by a power function.
And substituting each power factor into a power function, and calculating the power corresponding to each power factor. And obtaining the brightness corresponding to each power factor through power calculation. And calculating the standard driving current corresponding to each power factor through the brightness of the display panel, and storing the standard driving current corresponding to each power factor in a storage unit of the controller.
For example, the power function of the display panel is a piecewise linear function, and each power factor is substituted into the piecewise linear function to obtain the power corresponding to each power factor. And multiplying the maximum brightness of the display panel by corresponding power to obtain standard brightness corresponding to the power factor, and calculating to obtain standard driving current through the standard brightness.
In step S130, an actual driving current of the display panel may be detected, wherein the actual driving current is a driving current actually detected when the display panel operates.
In the working process of the display panel, the actual driving current of the display panel fluctuates due to the change of the external environment, for example, the driving current of the OLED display panel changes when the illumination and the temperature change. If the display panel or other devices including the display panel are used in a place where the temperature variation is large, the driving current may fluctuate greatly, and there may be a large difference between the actual driving current and the standard driving current. When the OLED display panel lights the same screen, the longer the lighting time is, the longer the driving current of the display panel will be, that is, under the same power factor, the fluctuation will also exist in the actual driving current of the display panel, so the actual driving current of the display panel needs to be detected in real time.
And detecting the actual driving current corresponding to the power factor of the current display panel in real time in the working process of the display panel.
For example, the display panel driving current detecting apparatus may be an apparatus as shown in fig. 5, and the driving current detecting apparatus includes a current real-time detecting module 540, the driving current real-time detecting module 540 is connected to a driving circuit 530 of the display panel 510, and the driving circuit is connected to the signal generator 520. The driving circuit is connected to a first power supply 560, the driving current flow real-time detection module 540 is connected to a second power supply 550, and the first power supply 560 may be a logic power supply. On the other hand, the display panel driving current detecting apparatus may be as shown in fig. 6, the current real-time detecting module 540 is disposed between the driving circuit 530 and the display panel 510, and the first power supply 560, the second power supply 550 and the signal generator 520 are all connected to the driving circuit 530.
In step S140, it is determined whether the actual driving current exceeds the standard by comparing the actual driving current with the standard driving current.
In the working process of the display panel, the power factor of the current display panel is calculated according to the display content of the display panel, and the actual driving current of the display panel under the power factor is detected in real time. Acquiring the standard driving current corresponding to the power factor obtained in the step S120; multiplying the standard driving current by a specified coefficient to obtain a standard driving current threshold value; and comparing the actual driving current with a standard driving current threshold value, wherein if the actual driving current is greater than the standard driving current threshold value, the actual driving current exceeds the standard.
The designated coefficient is a numerical value which is larger than or equal to 1, and is set according to the actual working requirement. For example, if 10% more is required as a limiting condition and the display panel can still operate normally, the coefficient is set to 1.1. The specified coefficients can be adjusted if in practical applications other values of constraints are required.
When the actual driving current is larger than the standard driving current threshold value, the actual driving current exceeds the standard, and when the actual driving current is smaller than or equal to the standard driving current threshold value, the actual driving current does not exceed the standard.
The actual driving current and the standard driving current are compared in real time, the driving current consumed by the display panel fluctuates when the display panel displays the same content, and whether the actual current exceeds the standard or not is obtained in real time by comparing the actual driving current and the standard driving current in real time.
In step S150, if the actual driving current exceeds the standard, the actual driving current may be adjusted.
When the actual driving current exceeds the standard, the driving voltage can be reduced so as to reduce the actual driving current. When the driving voltage is reduced, the driving voltage can be gradually reduced within a specified time, the feedback time of the driving current and the perception of human eyes are considered, the phenomenon that the sudden reduction of the voltage causes the brightness mutation of the display panel to influence the display effect is avoided, and the user experience is reduced.
And if the actual current does not exceed the standard, namely the actual driving current is smaller than the standard driving current threshold value, continuously keeping the current working state.
The adjustment of the display panel can be realized through the voltage adjusting device, when the actual driving current is larger than the standard driving current threshold value, the controller sends out a voltage adjusting signal, and the voltage adjusting device receives the voltage adjusting signal to adjust the driving voltage. The voltage regulation signal may include information such as a regulation trigger command, a regulation amount, and a regulation time to control the driving voltage to drop by a specified regulation amount within the regulation time.
Of course, it is easily understood by those skilled in the art that in other exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure, the target character sequence may also be marked in other ways, such as by specifically encoding the target character sequence, and the like, which is not specifically limited in this exemplary embodiment.
It should be noted that although the various steps of the methods of the present disclosure are depicted in the drawings in a particular order, this does not require or imply that these steps must be performed in this particular order, or that all of the depicted steps must be performed, to achieve desirable results. Additionally or alternatively, certain steps may be omitted, multiple steps combined into one step execution, and/or one step broken down into multiple step executions, etc.
Further, in the present exemplary embodiment, there is also provided an apparatus 200 for controlling a driving current of a display panel, which includes, referring to fig. 2: a power function determination module 210, a standard drive current calculation module 220, a detection module 230, a determination module 240, and an adjustment module 250.
